Wedding in Bielefeld

I found myself headed to Bielefeld once again to be the photographer at a wedding. This couple came up from Düsseldorf to have their wedding ceremony in the beautiful construction city that is this city. As chance would have it, I even already knew the bride’s father, being a former Bielefelder. It is a small world, as they say. When a wedding photographer gets a couple as cool as these two, it definitely reminds us f why we do this job. It doesn’t happen every day that the bride hops across fields and pastures in her wedding dress before the wedding. This couple was completely different and a jackpot in every way.

Yeah, it was really hot that day. At some point I gave in and accepted that fact. The wedding couple deserved to have their wedding photographer give it their all, and that means working up quite a sweat. No one has to cuddle with me, after all, and the pictures won’t stink.

The reception was in the country hotel Stiller Frieden, which means “tranquil peace.” It was a great location with really good food. Damn, how am I ever going to lose weight if I keep getting food like this each week? For the next wedding I’d better take a sandwich that my darling wife has made me… not!
